Thanks a lot Richard - this is just what I thought I might be able to do -
though I gather this is not an unusual problem.

Re: Small oil leak on Audi A4 Avant SE 2.4 V6
The leak is caused by the oil breather air pump blocking which causes
high pressure in the crankcase and blows the seals. You need to
replace the pump, 5 mins and about £17.00 otherwise it will happen
again.

Does the 1.8T have this same pump, if so can you tell me where it is?
